This week, we’re unpacking Bong Joon Ho’s Mickey 17, the sci-fi comedy starring Robert Pattinson — now streaming on HBO Max.
But first, we run through all the buzzy announcements from Netflix’s TUDUM 2025 event (0:07)–including first looks at Guillermo Del Toro’s Frankenstein and the highly anticipated return of Wednesday Season 2!
Then, we get into Mickey 17 (31:28)–Bong Joon Ho’s latest mind-bending sci-fi epic. From existential clones to icy world-building, we break down everything that worked (and what left us scratching our heads).
We tease next week’s episode at the end if you listen to those things (01:37:13).
In the meantime, let us know your thoughts about Mickey 17, and don't forget to like & subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts!
